    Default Billy Club Bars

    I wasn’t sure if I would like these as I’m not an “apes” fan......turns out they are nothing like apes. They certainly let me get my hands in just the right place......1.5” higher and 1” further forward than my current stock bars (that have been rotated up).

    Please forgive the ugly mug in the before and after photos......do not open in front of children.

    Yeah, I often wish the F3 was a bit larger framed, Lamont....but hey !
    I haven’t had the chance to take them out for even a test ride yet but after I took the stock bars off, I sat on the seat, closed my eyes and let my hands move to the most natural position. My highly paid assistant then took a couple of measurements, and the Billy Clubs installed to exactly that spot. They feel very, very comfortable

    That front on photo made it look like you had about a 6 to 10 inch toe out problem. Nice looking ride.

    I agree. Looks like an alignment issue to me also but it could just be the angle of the photo.

    Thanks for your concern, Hillbilly, but there is NO alignment issue. The fronts have been laser aligned by a reputable dealer. That was just a humorous comment from 2dogs due to the photo angle.

    Sheeeesh-talk about over the top! Surprised if he can even ride it that way. I would say posing a danger to himself and everyone around.

    He's probably from Californi!
